Civil Drones Council Long Range Operations WGA needed change of paradigm in regulations

6

• French experience shows that the « operational restriction » approach has already reached its limits

• No ability to develop new « scenarios »• Experimentations possible, but no way forward for mass uses

• New approach in the Civil Drones Council • Clear allocation of responsibilities to the operator and to the manufacturer

(and to the authority…)• Development of a trustworthy safety methodology based on aeronautical

standardso To Guarantee a safety level at least equivalent to today’s civil aviation system…o …. and compatible with estimated drone traffic increase at low levelso Exportable at European level

Civil Drones Council Long Range Operations WGA safety methodology for drones

• The use case : Long Range Operations

• A challenging mission envelope:o Daily long range surveillance of linear infrastructures

• Long range: 200 to 500 km

• Low level: 50 to 150 m

• Capabilities of flying over people

• Non-segregated airspace

• Corresponding to a proven end user need:o Productivity and efficiency gains compared to existing means,

new types of operations enabled

o Applicable to > 1 Million km of infrastructures in France only

o Major and proactive potential clients, unified specification request

o Many challenges of interest for the industry as a whole

• Many technical and safety-related barriers:o Trajectory assurance, communications, airspace integration…

• An airworthiness methodology exportable to other use cases:o From operational restrictions to an appropriate airworthiness

• At the core : the safety equation

• Interim long range operations : restricted activity volume (in fl hr) in predefined zones

→ Controlled exposure to third party Adapted requirements on design→ Regulatory framework: French derogations and Specific cat. Standard scenario→ Timeframe ~ 2018/19

• “Ultimate” long range operations : daily operations « almost everywhere » without prior notice

→ Few restrictions on third party presence high requirements on design (close to certified)→ Regulatory framework: presumably EASA Certified category→ Timeframe ~ 2022

Fatality likelihood< 10-x /fl hr

Third party presence likelihood (ground, air)

Fatal failure likelihood(fall, fly away…)

Acceptable safety level Design/licensing Density models

Partial proof of design Limited area of operation and activity volumes

10-7 /fl hr, adaptable depending on volume

10-7 /fl hr Approved airworthiness, proof of design

No restriction other than local exception

• Two applications

Development of a quantification methodology of ground presence based on various and consolidated data

• Third-party presence likelihood (air)

On a short-term basis : in the absence of a reliable collision avoidance system, the air risk is mitigated by operating in a de facto segregated airspace

No regulated areas but a mission volume close enough to the infrastructure to be considered empty of any other a/c

Maximum « fly away » probability capped @ 10-7/fl hr.

• Third-party presence likelihood (air)

Longer term : airspace shared with other a/c

Implies traffic separation solutions: onboard collision avoidance system (collaborative or not), UTM, etc.

Ground risksGround risks

Level 0 :Societal impact

Level 1:Operations

Level 2 :LR RPAS functional failures

Catastrophic • Excursion out of the predefined volume of flight• Fall without guarantee of falling in a predefined area

(included in fly away)

Hazardous • Fall into a predefined area where population density is verylow

• Controlled fall into an area where population density isknown (id est, controlled risk)

Major Loss of capability :• To modify the ongoing mission• To be detected by other aircraft (loss of navigation lights,

etc…)

For each function : - Undetected faultyperformance

- Detected faultyperformance

- Undetected loss- Detected loss- Untimely triggering

Civil Drones Council Long Range Operations WGWay forward

14

• Unfortunately, the future European regulation has a similar approach than the current French regulation

• No clear allocation of responsibilities between operator and manufacturer • No decision on the acceptable safety level for drones operations• No quantification of risk• No genuine generic approach :

• SORA is mission-based and entirely the responsibility of the operator

• We believe in our approach and will keep lobbying European institutions

• Many thanks to P. Hadou, DGA, and the organisation team of MAC 2018, for allowing us the opportunity to present our work today• We think there are commonalities between civil drones for high-added value

missions and some military ones and welcome your comments
